Looking for short film about polluted city in early 80's |
This is a true shot in the dark, but in 1982, I was in 2nd grade. I saw an old short film shot maybe in the 70's while I was in the elem. school library.
The short film had no speaking in it, but had a man wandering around New York-ish streets where everyone was weaing gas masks. While walking in the bleak and rainy cityscape, he finds a small flower growing in the filth and smog and digs it up.
He then walks to his home and steps into a small greenhouse. He takes the gas mask off and breathes in the fresh air. He plants the little flower with his other plants and is enjoying it when a mob of masked citizens start banging on the glass. They break the glass to breath in the fresh air and the man falls over.
Does anyone know what this post-apocolytptic short film was called and where can I find it?
For me to still remember it in that detail since seeing it last in 1982, it obviously either impressed me or scarred me (I don't quiet know which).

Dear Sir,
I do not know of this film, but I wish you good luck in finding which it is. In case nobody else responds to your post, it doesn't mean we don't care, So don't feel left out. Once again, I hope you find your film.
